I was a runner-up on the caption contest on Superman Homepage :)

  • Superman
  • Superman and Friends - Comic Book Humor and Parody

This is kind of fun — there’s no prize involved, but I was a runner-up on the Superman Homepage many times times; I’ve posted some of my favorite runner-up wins here…

In addition too being the most comprehensive and best Superman site in the world, each month they post a silly Superman picture and invite readers to post humorous captions.

Check out the site; it’s excellent.   http://www.supermanhomepage.com

robertgillis:
Kal-El: “Daddy, why is a monkey crawling into my spaceship?”
Jor-El: “That’s just Beppo, my son. We will retcon him later.”

robertgillis:
Crisis on Earth 1/2

Superman: “37?”
Lois: “37.”

robertgillis:
This is no fantasy. No careless product of wild imagination. I ask you now to pronounce judgment on those accused. On this… This mindless TV movie, whose only means of entertaining are wanton canon-violation and bad musical numbers. And on the woman Leslie Anne Warren, whose unreasoning hatred of any fashion sense has threatened even the children of the Planet Hollywood. Finally, David Wilson. Chief architect of this intended revolution and author of this insidious plot to ruin a generation’s version of Superman!


robertgillis:
Lex in Stewie Griffin voice: “I’ve been gone for three years but look at the bright side Clark, now you’ve been able to work on that… Superman thing. You know, becoming Superman… Been working on that for quite some time now.” [Voice gets higher] “Got, a nice costume, do you? Some red and blue? A cape?” [Voice gets higher] “Been, flying around, saving people openly? You know, FLYING? Not wallowing around in angst anymore? [Voice gets higher] Give the papers something new to write about… Keep the readers guessing?” [Voice gets higher] “Everyone learns that the hero’s journey isn’t always a happy one?” [Voice returns to normal] “I look forward to seeing it.”


robertgillis:
Clark: “So, you’re a werewolf, and you live in Boston with a ghost and Doomsday?”
Jimmy: “In this continuity, he’s a vampire.”

robertgillis:
Clark: “In Action Comics #900, I renounced my citizenship.”
Jimmy: “Oh my God!”
Clark: “April fool! It was just a one-shot story with no follow up, ever.”
Jimmy: “Yeah, speaking of that, meet Jason…”


robertgillis:

robertgillis:
Future Clark: “Myself… You do not remember me. I am Clark Kent – the way he’s supposed to be. By now you will have reached your 24th year. By that reconing, Smallville will have been creatively dead for thousands of years.”



robertgillis:
Storekeeper: “Sorry, I mistook you for Tom Welling but you’re wearing a Superman costume. My mistake.”

robertgillis:
Steve Younnis: “Sorry everyone, but so many people requested this young lady’s phone number that the comments section crashed. Please resubmit your comment again.”



robertgillis:
There’s kinky, there’s erotic, there’s just plain wrong, and then there’s… THIS.



robertgillis:
Bull: “Yeah, A BIG, FLOWING, ***RED*** CAPE! Really smart, there, Superman. Just brilliant.”

robertgillis:
